How the Wyoming estimate is calculated
Wyoming doesn’t tax wages, so your paycheck carries only federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare. Pre-tax 401(k) and Section 125 deductions still lower your federal tax, and Section 125 deductions also lower Social Security and Medicare.
On $65,000 (single, biweekly), federal income tax is $5,620 a year and Social Security and Medicare $4,973 — 16.3% of pay in total. Compared with a typical state income tax, that difference can be worth a meaningful amount each year; see how Wyoming ranks in the state comparison.
